Am I the only one here who thinks that "futuristic" and "aggressive mixed with dreamy" are all descriptions they've used before, more or less? That said, I'm not saying he's lying or anything, and I can understand that he's saying the songs are longer and more free-flowing, not compact or simplified, so that's very cool, and I am very excited.

no, you're not. i agree.

i agree phrases like that are used a lot... if we take the "aggressive mixed with dreamy" description, different words have been used over the years like dynamic and diverse, but it boils down to the same thing in the end.
but let's say it's the "aggressive mixed with dreamy" term that has been used since wp til this day, what album, to you, does not fit into that description? maybe chino use it because it fits every album? so it really isn't the description that is repetitive, it's the albums?

[iceache]

holy fuck. Shut up. Get over it. Quit bitching. Bring it to the bullshit thread.

So, this is no interview at all, but I sent a Facebook message to Rey Osburn (ex-Tinfed/Death Valley High) asking if Chino collaborates in Dangergirl and he told me this:


Reyka Osburn

hey thanks! yeah it's chino... we couldn't use his name due to constraints of contracts from Maverick. c-note is a nickname we all call him... so we just used that to keep off their radar.

in other news... since he doesn't have any more constraints, we're trying to coax him to sing something on our new record... which is due out this winter 2012.

thanks again and cheers!

Perhaps we'll have a new track with Chino in DVH! I really like the band, it's "doom pop/rock" stated by the band.. would be cool to listen to Chino in there.

[rock_n_frost]

who is chino

[luisch]

Chino dont have more constraints? something with WB is over?

[Millennia]

this is why crosses and palms will be released a while after this album.

[cvthedrv]

please chino say NO please!!!!

[cvthedrv]

...

that one was alright bu im talking about death valley high, i dont want another shitty featuring, i'll can't stand it.

[rock_n_frost]

may be crosses will release the full album instead of ep3

[snw9]

please chino say NO please!!!!

I will gladly listen to anything Chino lends his voice to. This is a good way for us to hear some form of deftones in different genres.

Reyka just confirmed this is all false information

[kitesvera]

...

Yeah thats true C note is one of his nicknames. All the rest of that is false though. Reyka told me its a direct quote but that he was not referring to tinfed, but rather death valley high. As of now they have no plans for a collab with Chino but that something could happen maybe once they get to recording the new death valley high. He said no one gets approached about that kinda thing until recording actually starts...In Regards to the contractual obligations he didnt clarify anything to do with that part. I guess its not false, rather misleading as Reyka put it...

[deftoolsys07]

What exactly did Reyka do on Lucky You? Never heard of him til now...

[Penicks]

pretty sure he does the "If you feel lucky, if you feel loved" and "spread your wings" part?

[deftoolsys07]

I'm pretty sure that's chino...

[Jerry_Curls]

Nope. I remember when the album came out reading about someone else contributing on that song. It bummed me to learn that it wasn't Chino singing that part.

[deftoolsys07]

Wow... listening to it now to hear it. And yes I can tell it is someone else singing that part. Weird! I never would have thought that... Except the "Spread your wings" part still sounds like Chino...
